Burnt Kilt
Strong Scotch Ale • Extract • 5 gal
Shooting for a very smokey oakey scotch ale. Using two kinds of smoked malt because I want a lot of smoke but don't want too much peat. Using lots of whole red oak chunks. Still new to brewing so if something looks wrong it probally is.

Oak Wood Chips - (omitted from calculations)
Oak Wood Chips
Adds a pungent woody flavor. Adding oak chips (which is done in the fermenter, not the mash tun) can add some interesting flavors to your homebrew as well as acting as a surface area to accelerate aging. To provide aged-in-oak flavor. Used in some IPA to simulate flavors from ocean passage to India.
